“The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart exults, And with my song I shall thank Him.” Psalm 28:7 (NASB)
This is a beautiful testimony by the psalmist David. He had learned a very special lesson and he wanted others to learn it too. That's why he sang these words and made his song available for others to sing it too. We don't sing the psalms much in our time but that was how they were shared in the time they were written. These words expressed David's faith and an experience that we can have in our Christian lives today. I'm thinking especially of what happens when we trust the Lord with our whole heart. As we trust Him He responds by giving us the help we need. We may sometimes need spiritual strength to face some special problems. If we trust the Lord for this strength He does help. Or, it may be we need help and protection just for everyday living. Believers are under assault more than ever. We can always say with David, “My heart trusts in Him and I am helped.” It is a promise, that He is our strength and shield.
